[squeak-dev] Community Supported Packages

Thinking about Seaside installation and pages on the homepage, I started to think about putting a Seaside installation script in SqueakMap. [1] (This script loads with no server, I don’t think, so I figure it’s incomplete. Does anybody have a more complete one?) 
Maybe I’d create two new pages: Seaside; and, Installation. (That URI - Installation - is from the old site). And then add links to SqueakMap and SqueakSource on that page. 
But then it made me think I’d have to find out who the Seaside maintainers are to ask them to put in a new script. But Seaside should be what we were calling a few years ago a Community Supported Package. Is it a CSM in SqueakMap? How does that work? 
It seems to me that creating a Seaside page and slapping a Metacello installation script on it is a short sighted solution. Perhaps the notion of a CSM could be explored at this juncture.

(Installer ss project: 'MetacelloRepository') install: 'ConfigurationOfSeaside3'.
((ConfigurationOfSeaside3 project) version: #stable) load.
